If we're doing money=smart, the mag 7 control almost $4T in assets and cash, so wouldn't you trust them even more?

Not based on the evidence of how they allocate capital. Meta wasted $80B on the Metaverse, for example. Apollo allocates capital as their day job. Mag7 allocates by vibes.

    Lol what in the world? Is running a trillion dollar corporation anything other than allocating capital?

    You can argue that Meta made a poor capital allocation decision with VR and perhaps continues to do so with AI.
